Chapter 764 - AN AWKWARD ATMOSPHERE
THE four other people, aside from Luo Yan, who heard Eclipse\'s exclamation, all had different reactions.
Shen Ji Yun only felt lightheaded. On the outside, he still looked expressionless but, on the inside, he was totally mortified. And those who knew him well enough could see that.
How could he have forgotten that Eclipse was with him when he \'confronted\' this Catnip during that time when the other tried to follow him and Luo Yan? Since it happened quite a while ago, it totally disappeared from his mind. He didn\'t even expect for Eclipse to suddenly say it now.
This was probably the disadvantage of having an intelligent AI that could practically think for himself. You would never know when your secrets would be suddenly exposed.
If he could, he truly wanted to just bury himself on the ground he\'s standing. He couldn\'t even dare to look at Luo Yan\'s direction, a little bit afraid to see the other\'s reaction. Once again, he\'s thankful for his perpetual poker face. If his embarrassment was also plastered all over his face, then, he might just really faint from mortification.
Bai Ze was confused after hearing what the little fox said. What fan-art? Was it the same fan-art he\'s thinking? Did he hear it correctly? The subjects of the said fan-art were none other than Luo Yan and Shen Ji Yun? And Xia Li was the one making it? No, that was not the most shocking of all.
It\'s the fact that Shen Ji Yun knew firsthand about it and did not do anything to stop Xia Li. From what Eclipse said, it even seemed like he encouraged her. If someone told him that his taciturn friend would do this, he might have directly laughed at their face. Telling them how crazy they were.
But hearing such things now, he no longer thought it was impossible. After all, as long as it involved Luo Yan, Shen Ji Yun could probably do the silliest thing without even changing the expression on his face.
Anyway, he was just glad that Eclipse\'s voice wasn\'t that loud and they were the only ones who heard what he said. If not, with how some people\'s brain worked, they might have twisted what Eclipse said. Then, some nasty rumors would float around the game forum until it became a big deal. He didn\'t want his cousin and Shen Ji Yun to deal with something like that.
Xia Lei, on the other hand, was on full-blown panic. [What should we do? They found out that my sister is making those fan-arts? Will they retaliate? They wouldn\'t try to beat my sister here, right? Should I ready myself to defend?]
But after the initial panic, it was quickly replaced by realization. If he heard it correctly, according to the little kitsune, YUN had long known about the fact that his sister was making fan-arts of him and Noctis. And YUN even encouraged such a behavior.
Why though? – That\'s the only question that came to Xia Lei\'s mind.
While her brother was all confused and befuddled, Xia Li only felt worried. She even wanted to scold Noctis\' pet a little bit. Based on the sudden silence after the kitsune said what he said, he could only assume that Noctis didn\'t know anything about any of this. Wouldn\'t this sudden reveal affect the relationship between the two?
When she and YUN met that time and the other told her that she could continue making fan-arts with him and Noctis as the subject, she had already felt that YUN might have \'special\' feelings for the moon elf. It was not just her fujoshi side talking. It\'s more like a woman\'s intuition. Which was especially effective when it came to things she\'s interested about.
But now that the cat\'s out of the bag, wouldn\'t Noctis be angry about this? If the relationship between the two was just simple friendship, wouldn\'t Noctis find YUN\'s action weird? What if he decided to stay away from YUN because of this? Or worse, what if Noctis became disgusted of YUN because of this incident?
No, she couldn\'t let that happen. She must clear any misunderstanding before it got worse.
But before Xia Li could say anything, Noctis suddenly stepped forward, closing the distance between them. Looking at the other\'s beautiful face at such a close distance almost felt like being hit by a couple \'sparkles\' coming out from Noctis.
"So, you\'re that Catnip," Luo Yan said, smiling while looking at the cat girl in front of him with shining eyes.
No wonder he thought the name \'Catnip\' sounded familiar. Ever since he learned of NightCloud CP, he searched Weibo to see if this CP of him and Shen Ji Yun was really that popular. He was quite surprised to see that many were indeed talking about it. And the number one \'advocate\' of this CP was none other than Catnip. Mostly because of these fan-arts she made.
They were beautifully done. Just one look and anyone could tell that the one who made them were truly talented when it came to digital art. Her drawings were almost like a photo, as if it was a real moment that was captured in real time.
Luo Yan liked her drawings. In fact, he liked it so much that he even saved some to his phone. He even made one his wallpaper.
"I really like your drawings. Especially those of Brother YUN and I," he said. "I think they\'re wonderful."
What he said finally broke the awkward atmosphere.
Of course, when he heard that Shen Ji Yun knew about the fan-arts long ago and might possibly even encourage the other to do more, it really did come as a surprise. But that surprise didn\'t last long. Because this was something his cinnamon roll would do.
He turned to the said cinnamon roll. "Don\'t you think so as well, Brother YUN?"
Shen Ji Yun, who seemed to just came out of a daze, quickly said, "Yes!" Noticing how enthusiastic he seemed, he cleared his throat and added, "I mean, yes, they\'re wonderful."
Xia Li glanced between the two and an incredible thought arose from her mind.
